New One Of a Kind Top plus Skulls Leggings!

I was bored yesterday and decided to treat myself to making a new one of a kind piece of clothing, which is always the thing I find most exciting and enjoyable to do. It's a studded bustier style top in red tartan and black and red cherries print in alternating panels. The front features black faux leather straps studded with silver pyramid studs and an adjustable lace up fastening with large silver eyelets. The back has more faux leather studded straps that cross over and the halter neck strap has a large silver buckle fastening that can be adjusted to fit.

It is a UK size 10/12 and the full measurements and details are listed on my website under the one offs and custom clothing area of my site.

New pair of leggings! I wasn't sure whether these would be a one of a kind pair or a regular item for all sizes, but after getting such a good response on facebook, decided to make them available made to fit, for regular and plus size. They are made from black cotton lycra with slanted panels of black and white skull and crossbones print and polka dot print on the front. As they are made from cotton they are super soft and comfy to wear. They are available to buy from the tights and legging section of my website.

I seem to have disappeared off the radar these past few weeks, things have gotten so busy I've been shackled to my machines constantly, hence my lack of bothering to post anything on here :( Anyway-catch up time, here are a few of my latest designs....

Rainbow Stripe Tutu Dress

This dress is made from multicoloured striped cotton with a fitted body featuring zipper front fastening and big decorative black bow and lace trim on the bust. The tutu part is made up of two tiers of stripe cotton and black lace. I love this dress! It may be a bit bright for some people's tastes, but I've always had a thing for rainbow coloured stuff! It makes me think of sweets and makes my eyes feel happy.

It's available custom made especially to fit for regular and plus size from the corset dresses and tutu dresses section of my website.

Punk Studded Tartan/Wet Look Leggings

These punk style leggings are one of kind and made from black glossy wet look lycra with panels of red tartan print and black studded faux leather. They are a UK size 8/10 and available to buy from the one of a kind clothing section of my site.

Leopard Print Lace Up Pencil Skirt

Lastly another lace up pencil skirt-I just love making these, I think they are super sexy! It's made from black wet look lycra with leopard print velour down the sides and black ribbon lace ups on top. It's available in regular and plus size and you can find it under pencil skirts!

Back (hopefully soon) with more new stuff as soon as I find time!

I've been having such a hectic time lately, juggling sewing orders, making new things and doing a load of internet stuff for my website, I've barely had time to stop and do anything else, much in need of a day off I think :) But for now here are a couple of new tops from this week.

This first top is a one of a kind punk style studded denim vest top. It has a lace up front fastening which can be adjusted to fit and is decorated with studded strips of faux leather, star print and wet look, with a studded mini pocket on one side. The back features crossover faux black leather straps studded with silver pyramid studs. I think this is a first, as it's already sold. Dont think I've ever sold something before I even got a chance to write about it, but hey, wanted to show it off anyways!

Stars and Studs denim Punk Vest Top

This top is available handmade to fit many sizes! It's quite similar to one of my one of a kind tops that had a lot of positive feedback and also disappointed people who wanted it to be available in more sizes. Well this one I can make to fit up to a bust of 48 inches! Yes that's right, I even made it available to plus sizes too :) It's made from black wet look with a gathered bust and antique brass look studs. The main body is black spotty semi see through lace with black faux leather studded shapes on the front. The back is plain black wet look. Oh and the strap is halterneck to give a flattering shape to the chest ;)

Antique Studded Wet Look Top

The last pic is a close up shot of the top and me wearing my new leopard print hearts locket and hair pins from Glamasaurus Online Store. I wrote about her shop in a post recently and again I urge anyone reading to visit her shop RIGHT NOW! As her jewelery is just totally adorable and really original too! Love!!!!

New Custom Colour Lace Up Top!

I've just listed a new top and it's available in regular and plus size. Not only that but you can also pick your own colour! The one I made is black and purple, but I can also make it with silver, blue or pink instead of purple.

The bust is made from black wet look, with silver studded faux black leather middle piece and a stretchy black halter neck strap for a comfy fit. The main part of the top is made with shimmery metallic overlaid with cute black polka dot lace. The bottom hem is also made from stretchy wet look black lycra and running down each side are faux leather strips with silver eyelets and black ribbon lace up detail.

Plus Size Alternative Clothing

Lately I've been getting the feeling that not many people are actually aware that I make plus size alternative clothing as well as for smaller sizes. A lot of confusion comes about I think, because I also make some one of a kind items such as those in my more recent posts...these ARE only available in smaller sizes. This is purely because I always have a lot of off cuts from older fabrics that are no longer available to me and I only have enough fabric left to make one item from them. And so obviously cant repeat the design when the fabric isnt being made anymore!

The only reason they are all in smaller sizes is purely down to ease (or laze some might say) as I can model them myself with minimum expense of time! I've been doing this a lot lately since moving to a new place where I have a lot less storage space than where I used to be, so I need to use up some fabric otherwise it'll just end up in a landfill, which needless to say...doesn't sit well on my conscience :S

As I've been posting a lot of these one of a kind items lately on Facebook, I think many people are mislead into thinking I'm harsh on larger sizes and only make clothes for small people....

This isn't the case at all! In fact the vast majority of my clothing I hand make from scratch as and when it is ordered by you lovely people. I make it especially to fit your own measurements to ensure it fits good. AND that includes plus sizes! The reason I refer to these items separately as plus size clothing, is that I do unfortunately have to charge more for the larger sizes, to cover fabrics and other extra material costs and so I have two separate listings for these to cater for the different pricings.

Corset dresses, mini skirts, fishtail skirts, long sleeved gothic tops and corset belts are just a few of the things I have available to plus size alternative ladies at the moment. So please don't be discouraged by my recent work, it's nothing against larger sizes, I'm just trying to make some extra money from fabrics that would otherwise have gone in the bin.

Here are a few of my plus size customers favourite items to buy! Click the image to go to my website and see the full range available!

Sexy Pencil Skirt With Lace Up Sides (& Leggings!)

I'm still trying to use up some of my older fabric before I invest in some exciting new stuff. I have so many different fabrics but not enough of any of them to make something whole, so I'm just mixing and matching different pieces and seeing what I come up with. So here's a super sexy, figure hugging pencil skirt I made this morning! It's high waisted and made from black semi wet look lycra with red pot hole fishnet panels down each side. The panels are studded with large silver eyelets, which lace up with black ribbon and tie into bows at the knee. The elasticated waistband and bottom hem of the skirt are made from hi shine, glossy black wet look lycra. The skirt fits a uk size 8/10 with the below measurements...

*WAISTBAND 26"-31", *HIPS 32"-36"

Black Wet Look Lace Up Pencil Skirt...

Also after finally finding some similar fabric I've been able to update the zebra print leggings in my shop with a new and improved version, after the original fabric went out of stock months and months ago. These are actually the most comfortable leggings I've ever worn, they are made from a light, silky soft zebra print stretch, ideal for warmer weather. They're so stretchy and comfy that it barely feels like you're wearing them.

These are available in my shop to be custom handmade to fit any size up to a maximum hip measurement of 52". One price for all sizes!! Just £17.99

Couple of Custom Orders!!

I've had a fair few custom orders recently which has been fun and here are some of my favourites....plus most of the others I didnt manage to get a photo of!

The first customer was looking for a long black velvet gothic skirt which is tight fitting down to the knee with three tiers of ruffles fanning out as the skirt goes down. This took me much longer than I had anticipated but I did enjoy making it as its a bit different to my usual style and am pretty pleased with how it turned out.

The next is a pair of patchwork leggings in black and white polka dot print jersey and plain black, with alternating panels on each side.

And lastly, this customer was looking for some wet look black studded leggings similar to the pair I sell on my website with large silver pyramid studs, however she wanted them to be more unique and with different types of studs and asymmetrical.

ONE OF A KIND:White Leatherette Studded Bustier

I've decided I am going to start making some original and unique one of a kind pieces to sell under a special section of my website. I'm going to try and make a couple of these items every so often alongside my regular items and see how it goes, I just really want to start making proper crazy designs that are very special and unique and that people would be willing to pay that bit extra for, just to have something one of a kind. I think I will have to make most of these items with some kind of adjustable fastening to cater for a wider selection of sizings, otherwise only the people my own size will be able to wear them. Anyway this is my plan and my first item is now listed on my website.

This is by far my favourite item of clothing I've made and I loved every minute of making it and I plan to make much more one of a kind things like this very soon. http://www.mylittlehalo.co.uk/white-leatherette-studded-bustier-size-8small-1333-p.asp

It is a glam rock/biker chick inspired white faux leather studded bustier top with a halter neck buckle strap which can be adjusted to several different strap lengths. The front is decorated with black faux leather and silver pyramid studs and silver conical studs and the central zipper fastening is stiffened with steel boning to avoid any unflattering crumpling of the tummy.

Couple of Custom Skirts :)

I had a couple of custom orders this week which I really enjoyed making and wanted to show off. The first was a take on my green spiderweb lace skirt featuring a black waistband with a rah rah style lower half with 3 layers of fabric; black cotton, green cotton and black gothic web lace on the top with matching green lace up bits on the waistband. The customer wanted the same style skirt but with a slightly shorter waistband and longer lower half and with cerise pink instead of green.

Cerise & Black Gothic Web Lace Skirt

The second skirt she wanted was a take on my black and white music print skirt which normally has a black waistband with lower tiers of black cotton and black and white music print cotton with a matching lace up corset style decoration on the waist. However the customer wanted the same style skirt without the lace up panel and again with a shorter waistband and longer lower half.

NEW COLOURS FOR ZEBRA PRINT DRESS!

I've recently added some colour options to my new zebra print corset dress! Originally I've only ever had it available in black and white zebra print, but I've added hot pink and turquoise options too. I havent had time to make the dress in either colour yet, but there are some images of the pink and turquoise zebra print fabric that I will be using.

So now you can customize not only the measurements the dress will be made to fit, but also colour preference too :)

More Gothic/Punk Wristwear!

I made two more punk style wristbands this week :) The first one is my favourite, its made from black leatherette and turquoise tartan with a decorative studded black leatherette panel in the center with conical silver metal punk studs and adjustable silver popper fastening. As this wrist strap is made from the same tartan fabric as my top selling turquoise tartan corset dress, I thought it would go well as a matching accessory! The second is made from black leatherette and black, red and white skulls print fabric, featuring central silver pyramid studded decorative panel and silver adjustable popper fastening. These hand made wrist bands are both made from leatherette which is thinner than real leather, however I made them using lots of layers thickness of fabric so ensure that they are equally as sturdy as if they were made from real leather! They are unique both one-off items and they are for sale on my website now!
